Star wide receiver Chris Godwin and left tackle Tristan Wirfs were among the five players the Tampa Bay Buccaneers placed on the active/physically unable to perform list at the outset of training camp Tuesday.

Players who are placed on the PUP list during the summer can be activated from it at any moment. If a player starts the season on the PUP list, he must miss at least four games.

The Buccaneers had previously confirmed Wirfs, 26, had arthroscopic surgery this month on his right knee following an injury last season. The team said he was expected to miss training camp and the preseason.

A four-time Pro Bowl selection and two-time first-team All-Pro, Wirfs started 16 games in 2024 and has started all 79 of his games since Tampa Bay drafted him 13th overall in 2020. Wirfs signed a five-year, $140.6 million extension last August.

Godwin, meanwhile, finished the 2024 season on injured reserve due to ankle surgery. He signed a three-year, $66 million contract to return to Tampa Bay this offseason, but he has not yet begun participating in team activities.

In his eighth NFL season (all with Tampa Bay) in 2024, Godwin caught 50 passes for 576 yards and five touchdowns. Across 111 career games, Godwin has racked up 579 catches for 7,266 yards and 39 TDs, along with two rushing scores.

The Bucs also placed offensive tackle Silas Dzansi, guard Sua Opeta and backup quarterback Michael Pratt on the PUP list. Linebacker Anthony Walker Jr. was placed on the active/non-football injury list, and nose tackle Desmond Watson will start camp on the active/non-football illness list.
